Title and its translation

Titles can consist of general heading and one or more sub-headings. If the overall title is not sufficiently disclose the contents of the text it is necessary to refer to the subheadings or read the entire text, and then return to the translation of the title.

One characteristic of the titles is a variety of abbreviations that can be defined in the context or in a dictionary. A list of the most common abbreviations can be found in almost every dictionary.

Difficulties in translation may occur if the title has omission of the adverb - predicate, auxiliary verbs and article; no subject and predicate verb is in the personal form.

For example, "From Confidence To Pressure", to make a literal translation of the title is impossible. Often these titles have subtitles Debts as a component of Ukrainian-Russian relationship still to be settled.

The subtitle (and sometimes the entire text) should be carefully read to have a proper translation.

German satellite to hit Earth

keep those helmets handy. while we all survived the school bus -sized satellite that crashed into the pacific last weekend, here comes another one. next up on deck, a german satellite slated to make a flaming reentry in november. behind that one, the folks at space command -- and you have to love the fact that there is a place called space command -- are tracking close to 20,000 other orbiting objects and they can't stay up there forever.
